Join the Next #DallasChat on Wednesday, May 20, at 8 p.m.

Dallas Decoder’s next #DallasChat on Twitter will be Wednesday, May 20, from 8 to 9 p.m. Eastern time.

Since this will be our first midweek chat — and since Dallas Decoder will soon begin reviewing the original show’s midpoint eighth season — our theme will be: “Do the Hump.”

Are you new to #DallasChat? Here’s how it works: During the hour-long discussion, I tweet 10 questions from my Twitter handle, @DallasDecoder. Fans respond to the questions and comment on each other’s answers, making each chat a fun, freewheeling group conversation.

Here’s a sample exchange:

Q1. Who posed the greatest threat to J.R. and Sue Ellen’s marriage? #DallasChat

A1. It was that Winger tramp, Mandy. She almost stole J.R. forever! #DallasChat

Here are three tips:

• Each #DallasChat question is numbered (Q1, Q2, etc.), so your responses should include the corresponding number (A1, A2, etc.).

• Include the hashtag #DallasChat in your tweets.

• During the discussion, enter #DallasChat in Twitter’s search field. This will help you watch the search results so you can follow the conversation. Click “All” to see all the related tweets.

I can’t think of a better way to celebrate Hump Day, can you? See you Wednesday!
